Just wanted to say "Hi"

Post by Relfy »

Hello everyone who remembers me! Glad to see a lot of you still here :) I am just passing through to *sniff* to sell Wilberforce as I acquired Wilma the narrowboat who is somewhat more demanding (female) and have been neglecting him. What's new on here? I see Cam did a good job giving it all a face lift. Lou, if you still fancy visiting the boat I am now in Gloucestershire.

Yay! You two remember me! :D I thought for a moment noone would. I dont think there is a forum quite like this for Narrowboats. I dont think there is a forum like this for anything! I quite miss it, although I have plenty of other distractions when I am meant to be working so perhaps I dont need more. ;) How is it going with you both?

'course I remember you El! :)

Hope the boat's going well, meant to message you last time we went to Brizzle, but it ended up being a very rushed visit and the viva I had at the time spat all it's coolant - making me somewhat less keen on going anywhere that wasn't in our plans :/

Hopefully me'n'Kathryn'll pop in and say hi when we're next on that side of the country...

Hey Kate! Sure, drop by, Wilma likes having visitors, even if you can't fit many inside! lol. My next trick is to find a sofa that will fit but also be comfortable. Its like living in a doll's house! But as I'm not very big it suits me fine.

So whatcha up to at work Dan? And is compulsory to be smelly when you are a student? I just want to know as I'm going to be going back to college soon... ;)

Juliet, wow, sounds like a successful project. aupickup is a star, I remember that from before! Must say I'm most impressed by the paint job in your picture.
